sibling love

I recently noticed that due to all of his lounging and reclining, the back of Sebastian's head is almost completely flat. Simon even took a gander and agreed with my diagnosis. So I confidently prescribed less lazy lounging and pulled out the Bumbo for him to enjoy in the hopes that his head would round back out to a normal shape.  

Obviously someone couldn't handle Sebastian holding court from her old throne and was a smidgen on the jelly side. And despite my best efforts to explain that she gets to do big girl things like sleep through the night, wear size three diapers and carry Sebastian's diapers to the trash, she still tantrumed away.

It was all funny and laughy until she very seriously tried to physically remove him from the babylazyboy. I stifled my laughter and simply moved him to a higher surface out of her reach ... which sent her even more over the edge ... if that was even possible. 

Just a little exclusive peek at what keeps me young and fun these days. 
De nada.

  9. I will look at these pictures every time I think it's a good idea to have another child. Because they're FREAKIN' HILARIOUS. I know it must be obnoxious at times, but you're a very lucky mama. Enjoy them! I love that you see the humor and the love even in the midst of chaos.

  11. Regan did the same thing when we pulled out the "mum-mum" as she calls it, it is her favorite place to sit even though her 22-month-old bum barely fits. And she definitely gets jealous and upset if we put the baby in it! Julia's face in the last on is awesome, she is serious about getting him out of her seat!!

  13. This is heartbreaking... simply because we have the EXACT SAME TRAUMA at our house. I'm living that dream, or some variation of it. Good times, good times.

  16. Hahaha, I love how completely undisturbed by Julia's hysterics Sebastian is. He's all, "Meh... women. Strange creatures. Now about that food..."

  17. Hahahahahaha! Oh, golly. I love it. These pics are keepers for sure! It's only funny to me now because I'm about to go through the same thing in a few months.

  19. Oh boy, she looks mad! ha!
    How's that 'big girl' stuff working out? I keep trying to convince my almost-2-and-a-half-year-old that he's a big boy so he can go pee on the potty and stay in his bed all night long. Not going so well...
